The 2024 Dutch Grand Prix has seen all seasons across the weekend at Zandvoort, including in the same sessions.

FP1 started in terrible conditions but the track quickly dried before a dry FP2, but the rain was back for FP3 as Logan Sargeant found out to his cost with his huge accident that ruled him out of qualifying. 

That was dry but the rain came forcing the postponement of the F1 Academy race to Sunday morning - so what is in store for the drivers on race day?

Current forecasts estimate a dry race with the rain not impacting Zandvoort, but strong winds will continue to blow in from the North Sea.

These will be coming from a South-Westerly direction, roughly corresponding to cross-wind through the final banked corner and along the pit-straight which runs north-south. 

It will not be as severe as Friday's wind, but still more than is usually experienced at grands prix, coming in about 20-40kph - some 12.4-24.8mph.

Temperature-wise, it is expected to be around 19 degrees.
